Broken

Chapter 15: Lost

~Arielle's POV~ 

I sat there in shock at what the doctor had just told Wes and I, I couldn't believe it. It couldn't be true that's not possible. We were too young, and what would my dad do if he found out? The baby's life would be in jeopardy. 

"Arielle! Arielle? Babe...please look at me?" Wes must have been calling me for a while I ripped away my gaze from the wall and stared at him. He was kneeling and he was holding my hands in his. "Hey beautiful everything is going to be alright I promise." 

"NO IT'S NOT! MY DAD IS GOING TO FIND US, HE'S GOING TO KILL THIS BABY. NOTHING IS OKAY, I'M SICK YOUR CAREER IS JUST TAKING OFF WE CAN'T HAVE A BABY RIGHT NOW IT'S GOING TO SCREW EVERYTHING UP!" I shouted at him, I wasn't mad at him I was just freaking out. 

"Ari! Stop talking like that please...Your dad won't lay a hand on you or my child! I can handle a baby and still do music." He said I saw the fear in his eyes as he spoke. "Can we please leave, I don't want to cry here.." "Yes come on we need to go find the doctor."

I stood up and Wes interlocked our fingers, it made me feel safe and secure. When we got outside the doctor gave me medication, and told me to call him if I didn't get better soon. We got in the car and drove in silence till we got to Drew's house. 

When we got inside I broke down, tears starting flowing down my cheeks. I ran to the couch and started sobbing, I began to shake violently and Wes ran over to me. "Baby please stop crying, it's all going to work out I promise."

"N-no I c-can't, I r-ruined y-your career, a-and your l-life." I managed to choke out, I continued to sob and Wes pulled me into his lap. He grabbed my chin and pulled me up to look into his eyes. "Don't ever say that again. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. You haven't ruined my life you have given it purpose. You make me want to be better person, you make me want to grow up. You inspire me to pursue my dreams and always strong. I love you Ari." 

I had stopped crying at this point, I couldn't believe what he had just said. We had been dating for almost four months and he just told me he loved me. He said I made him want to be a better person and I inspire him to pursue his dreams. 

When he said he loved me it felt like even though I was having a bad day, and a bad few weeks none of that mattered when he uttered those three words. They made my world alright, they made me realize it would be okay in the end. 

In truth I wasn't sure if I loved Wesley until the day he came over to Drew's house and saw I had been staying there. Seeing him made me realize how much I truly missed him. I missed him holding my hands, I missed him always being there when I needed him, I missed his kisses. 

I knew I loved him that day, and I knew I loved him today when he told me he would be there for me through this pregnancy. He wouldn't leave me, he was going to be there for me and our child. I never knew what love was until now. 

I guess I had been staring off into space for quite a while because, Wes was calling my name over and over again. "Ari..Ari please say something...I'm so sorry I totally ruined everything..I'm not going to say I didn't mean it though because, I really do love you.." 

"I love you too Wes." He stopped looking at the ground and playing with my hands and looked up at me, a huge grin stretched across his face. "You..you love me too?" "Of course you big idiot!" He started to lean in and I knew exactly what he was about to do. 

He hadn't kissed me in weeks I didn't want him to because I was sick. Our lips collided and moved in sync perfectly. This kiss was different though, it was filled with love and passion. Wes moved his hands to my waist and began to rub my hip bones.
